Winemaker Notes
The 2013 Reserve Cabernet is massively structured with a finish so long that Winemaker Sally Johnson says, "I'm not sure where it stops because I'm too impatient for the second sip." The flavors are classic Pride – loads of black fruit, cassis and bramble, all layered with complex notes of tar, leather, black tea and crushed mint. It's a beautiful wine from a beautiful moment in time and a wine that will be a thrill to follow as it ages over the next 25+ years.
Blend: 99% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
A real tour de force once again, and their second consecutive perfect score, is the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, which is 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot aged 22 months in 40% new French oak. It is a larger cuvée of 1,416 cases versus 450 for the Reserve Claret. The Cabernet is just under 15% alcohol. A fantastic wine, with great intensity, notes of graphite, forest floor, crème de cassis, white chocolate and blackberry, the wine hits the palate with a thunderous presence, has a multi-layered, skyscraper-like palate feel, a plush, intense texture, high but well-integrated tannin and acidity, and nicely disguised oak. This is a magnificent wine, with 79% of it coming from the Sonoma side of Spring Mountain and 21% from the Napa side. Drink it over the next 25-30+ years.
